002 "The second hand beats out of time"

Yay! I'm waiting for my computer to publish my video, and then I have to upload and wait and I will have completed two hair tutorial videos! Finally. I fully spent an hour just figuring out song choices and editing the clips, and I thought video editing was difficult enough. Windows Movie Maker is a very limited program, I hope to find something better. I realize that making a video takes more time than I thought. Preparing to film, filming, editing, perfecting. I would say perfecting is always the rate determining step. I'm not easily pleased by my work, it's not that I have high standards, just that I want to excel at the level I think I'm capable of. If only that applied to other aspects of my life.

So since I'm super novice at all this I'm not involved in any makeup/hair/beauty type communities although I follow several. I guess I'm shy.

I'm thinking of posting makeup photos on my blog to share and get critiqued. I'm fairly new at doing makeup so I need feedback. Also my camera is pretty low quality so trying to do makeup videos would seem worthless. I guess picture tutorials is always a choice. But since my passion is hairstyling I'll stick with that for now.

Watch the video!

Toodles.

001 There's a first time for everything

My first public blog, whee. I don't know what to do or what to say... this is awkward. Well, I guess I'm finally doing this after so many times of me chickening out, I have this problem, I hate doing things if they're not perfect. So posting this will be a bitch because I won't want to unless the spelling and grammar is perfect, which is a problem because my English skills are very elementary. Blogging is embarrassing. But it's okay because it's not like you can see me blush. Okay so that's enough irrelevant rant for now.

The real reason behind this blog is to keep up with my youtube channel DubiousDetour. My goal is to start making makeup/hairstyle videos. An apology ahead of time because these videos will be super novice when I start so hopefully that'll change over time to them being just plain super XD. Call me a mouse but I'm sure you'll get used to all this cheese.

I'm going to go examine all these settings now.

Toodles. Noodles?
